外見

The common juniper is a coniferous shrub with stiff, pointed, needle-like leaves, typically arranged in whorls of three. Its 'berries' are actually small, round, fleshy cones that ripen to a distinctive blue-black color, often with a powdery white coating. It can vary from a low, spreading bush to an upright, slender tree, making it visually distinct from other conifers.
